@@14KroshTV you are right about max, You are wrong about stephen a... and hears why, that argument could be used against Stephen A 15 years ago maybe. today Stephen A is respected (maybe not liked but that is because he tells the truth, they respected him becuase he says it to their face as well) by everyone in the NBA and is literally the definition of an insider. Why do you think first take got the melo interview, the durant interview etc etc the guy is much much much much much different than a bunch of old guys bud, in fact he is better to listen to than nba players because most ex nba players wont say things to hurt there friends and will say other things just because they didnt like a certain guy or team.
Oddly enough, the fact that many older players hate Steph is in itself an expression of respect. It shows that they realize that Steph has materially changed the modern game of basketball and has been high successful. If Steph had all this shooting ability, but never won a championship, he would NOT be hated. Laughed at, pitied, marveled at. But not hated.

One word to describe Matt Barnes "PROFESSIONAL" hands down dude is good for TV no bias no bs false narrative he gives expert analysis and of course he has that UCLA communications degree
I really don't like Ryan Hollins. I don't know why. Just looking a him and the way he talks. He just seems like that kid that arrogant kid from the suburbs to me but maybe that just my personal issues. Let me know what it is about him. Paul Pierce sucks as a broadcaster but I would listen to him all day over Ryan Hollins.
@@morelife6508 Well I guess it's a preference thing, but even though he doesn't speak at lightning speed, I understand everything he says. Also he actually knows what he is talking about and offers a great perspective. I agree about Matt Barnes!
Ryan Hollins: Why would players hate Steph? Hes a likeable guy? I call B.S. Steph is a Great player & I believe he can take the Jordan Bulls easily if they played each other prime vs Prime.
The main thing is probably because Steph lowkey came out of nowhere. Dude had his first all star appearance in 2014 then by 2018 he got 2 MVPs and 3 rings. That and the fact that he changed the nba, which very very few players can say. Not even some all time greats get credit like that.
Holy shit you're right. he was a rising star in 2013-14, just starting to try and breach that Superstar level. And then immediately won MVP, a ring, another MVP, 73-9, got KD, and won 2 more rings. Steph really did just sort of explode into top 5 status in the league, props to Steve Kerr.

"They hate us 'cuz they ain't us" Curry just makes it look easy, like he's the game on boss mode. The leadership, energy, the incredible playmaking, and mindblowing shotmaking... brilliant!
@ATL 1 its the whole other way around mate, you obviously have no basic knowledge of basketball. K.D and steph were great friends, steph made kd a better player through his unselfishness which kd got back to back final mvps (that's legendary). The reason why KD left was because of his feud with draymond green not stephen curry

He acts and performs like a well raised person. My compliments to his parents for their direction and participation in growing such a fine young man. May health and happiness forever follow The Curry Family . Jesus is Love
Jump used to talk about basketball. Now it's just about creating drama...like the rest of the ESPN shows... re: jealous older players. Iggy is probably talking about guys like Chris Paul. I still remember that killer crossover that Steph gave him years ago. Or the shimmy imitation that CP3 had of Steph from last year's series.
I don't condone but understand some of the resentment, Nick nailed it. Bigs and non-shooting wings were forced out of the league or nearly forced out because he changed the game so much. The traditional, pludding center and power forward died. Wings needed to be at least 3-nand-D.
@@masculinitymatters9030 he wasn't wrong, neither ..... Stephen Curry is LARGELY responsible for changing how the NBA game is played. I won't say the Shaw/Dwight-type centers were forced out of the league by Steph cuz (truthfully) there aren't any of those coming through anyway .... but the paint is so much more open for drives to the basket now cuz there are so many more threats to pull up and lace shots from 22-32 feet that they HAVE to be guarded from basically halfcourt inward.
Have to say, Matt Barnes is Fantastic; he keeps it real, thoughtful, knowledgeable, not afraid to talk about other aspects of the game, usually "left out" and is always, respectful to the other commentators. No nonsense, poised, thoughtful, elegant...refreshing. More Matt Barnes!
Why, so they can work the hell out of him 365 days a year! Now Charles, Kenny and Shaq have the dream analysis job on TNT and it's far better than anything on ESPN that's basketball related and their NINE EMMY'S confirms that!
Matt Barnes is by far my fav guest analyst!! he makes very structured comments and how often do you get a guy saying "go ahead finish your point and i'll say mine" instead of those who are cutting other people off
I actually saw MB walking through the ATL airport and asked him for a quick photo. He was a cool guy. Snapped the pic and told me to have a good day. No attitude. No BS. Just a chill dude taking a moment to appreciate a fan. Also, @ 4:10, that was a classy move.
I wouldn't say that Steph sacrifices touches. By being a distributer, he gets more and better looks at the basket because it forces the defense to pay attention to the other guys as well. That's when Steph hits your with a 40 foot bomb.
Nah KD does what he does because... well he’s KD. Steph didn’t make him. Lol. I also don’t see Curry’s unselfishness helping Klay and Green play the D that he refuses or just flat out forgot how to play. If he ever played D at all. Those championships are more of a result of Klays, Green, and Iguodalas shut down defense than Curry shooting 3’s or being unselfish.
Zachary White You’re crazy if you think Klay wouldn’t of excelled in the league. He can shoot is athletic and actually plays D. His shooting helps Curry as much as the other way around.
@EL COMEDY BULLY Iggy used Steph to sell his book. Wow, that makes a lot of sense because there were no details when spoke about Steph and his eyes rolled to the right when they asked him about it.
I used to dislike Matt when he was on the floor, no reason. But I love him so much now on the mic. Punctual, precise and polite. Always great analysis.
Matt Barnes nailed it about Curry, albeit unfortunate. But it's true. "Perfect example of what the NBA thinks to be represented as". His skills are off the charts but it's hard not to ignore how highly the NBA treats him.
Mainly Chris Paul... I Remember The First Year He Got Chosen To Start Over Cp3 In The All Star Game The Hatred For Steph Grew Around The League From That Day On 💯
That's the thing. Steph played the game in his own way, fit for his size, his strengths, his skills. However, most NBA players played the game to "be like Mike". Kobe wants to be Mike, Lebron wants to be Mike, almost all NBA players wants to be like Mike. But Steph created his own path, a trailblazer, and managed to changed the game Forever.
Yeah because Mike was actually exciting to watch. It isn't exciting watching someone chuck up 3's all game long. It isn't fun to watch. I can only imagine how much less fun it is to actually play against. These players play to win, but they also wanna have fun doing what they love. Curry takes all the fun out of the game
@Michael Lansky Yeah....but sometimes people need to be reminded of the obvious. So many players being "criticized" for being washed up, but no one cares that father time has no love for anyone.
Dude, those player profiles are hilarious! Did you just notice? Look at all of the players. Most of them end with something like that. T-mac's "Hella famous in China" gets me every time 😅
Ive become a huge fan of Matt Barnes. He seems like a real dude and I like the fearless gritty style of basketball that guys like Barnes and Rodman play.
This cast is really great and talk very accurate and factually about their topics. Regarding players that don’t like steph. It’s similar to Jeremy Lins story. You’re considered an outsider in the game where many players come from an impoverished background. Many superstars are not like that and therefore will try to spread hate onto you. It’s terrible because it’s the thing they are actually supposedly fighting for in our society today.
It’s also the legacy narrative, the one that’s pushed by the NBA itself. The 2016 finals is remembered for Kyrie hitting a 3 *with over a minute left* in game7. But, the story has *Never* has the story been pushed as: “Steph missed 2, wide open, potentially game winning shots when his team really needed him, and couldn’t carry his 73 win team the previous closeout games” That biased narrative, pushed by the NBA and its broadcasting partners, is what gets to other players who are treated differently. Shouldn’t those finals be remembered as a Steph choke job? It’s the exact same reason Pippen wanted out of Chicago after the ‘91 championship. He was undoubtedly the 2nd best player on the court during their entire run. So, now the NBA and it’s media arm could stop solely blaming him for MJ choking the year before against Detroit, and he could finally move away from the media circus in Chicago.
Matt Barnes to me is a breath of fresh air. He is a calm cool and collected commentator and not mad in his feelings like SAS, Kellerman, Paul Peirce lmao.
Matt Barnes needs his own show, probably coupled with Perkins and a moderator. His perspective is so clean and clear and smooth. The man needs his own show.
@@nick_fuqua My comment was made nearly a year ago, when Perk first started and he was keeping it real. Now i would have to say, i agree with you, Perk has transformed into a blabber mouth, Lebron groupie and just down right annoying.
Jay Philly First of all the refs did that. They call tiny touches and send people to the lines. That’s how it got so soft. They call anything now. And when they know they’re wrong they refuse to reverse the call ok But kids who aren’t exactly athletic are striving to be like steph. Believe it or not, he inspires the kids who aren’t athletic or aggressive.
Iggy is absolutely right. I can name one player for sure, who has lost many sleepless nights in trying to figure out ways to beat and compete against Steph and the warriors. Steph is this person's #1 nemesis and his absurdity of trying to beat Steph is greater than that of Mike D'Anton's. Steph has changed the point guard's position and NBA League for the good.
Been saying for years.... If he was from the backwoods of Virginia, from poverty, had dark skin and tattoos he'd be universally considered one of the best to ever do it.... But because he comes from NBA money... Grew up around the league... People think he didn't earn it.. like guys from the hood have to. Just how it is.... I've been watching since 1990....hes easily one of the 10 best players since then... If not top 5.
That’s really stupid because here’s the list of NBA players who are sons of NBA players: Kobe Bryant Klay Thompson Justice Winslow Al Horford Devin Booker Jae Crowder Wesley Matthews Andrew Wiggins Larry Nance Jr Darius Garland Gary Trent Jr Glen Rice jr Tim Hardaway Jr Jaren Jackson Jr Jerian Grant (dad AND uncle played in NBA) Jerami Grant (dad AND uncle in NBA) Garret Temple Bol Bol Domantis Sabonis Jalen Brunson Ed Davis Nic Claxton And this list goes on and on And soon Lebron James’s son will be in the NBA, then Shaq’s son, then D Wade’s son (not the one who turned into a chick)
@@youtubecommenter37 yeah and none of them outside the top 2 on your list have done anything to earn worldwide praise . Klay still gets seen as a role player....Kobe still didn't get the respect he deserved until after he died. Of course everyone knows Steph is good....some don't see greatness and I believe that his upbringing has something to do with it. Theres still lots of people who think Russ is better than Steph....makes me laugh.
when u train ur whole life to play your own specific way then some lil light skin nigguh gon come and make your style obsolete. you just wasted your whole life perfecting a craft that isn't needed it hard tfo a nigguh to his stop hatin bruh
He got that "soft light skinned game". I remember kobe saying something to that affect when Jordan Clarkson tried to do a layup instead of dunking it one game.
Yes the game has changed calm me and old head or whatever but basketball when I was growing up was big men down low, post play etc.. but you can’t hate or resent steph for any reason the man is great at what he does. Everyone has an opinion but if he is playing better than you you just got to play that much better than your opponent. 20 years from now there will be another player who is just that damn good. Let’s enjoy the sport and get away from the drama.
Truth and Barnes always keep it real. I cannot stand warriors not because of their wins but their growing arrogance and thug draymond but one person I and many LA fans respect is Curry, he’s changed the nba landscape and remains humble and hard working. He’s a 🐐 regardless of his skin color. Glad Matt had the guts to bring out the issue of light and dark skins prejudice existing in the African Americans society.

Gossip and Controversy brings in viewers because it "triggers" them. It brings in more viewers. More Viewers = more people = more publicity = more advertisement opportunities.

That is impressive in itself lol. But it should be followed up by "Failed, smartened up and joined him." Ron Artest has a similar bio lol.
Must of missed that new overhead footage. Wasn’t even in Kobe’s face. It was just a funny angle that made it look that way.
I was in tears when I saw that 😂😂 like why espn?
Sean Mcbrearty it was still pretty damn close to Kobe’s face
Who isnt jealous of the Golden Boy? CP3 and the rest of the NBA gon hate, but end of the day Steph's better than 99% of em.
Andreas Ryge I agree the biggest curry hater is Chris Paul he knows he can't beat him or be as good as him
I actually dont know why said 99%. Now that Bron's fallen off Steph's better than 100% of em!
Wait Stephs better than 100% than them for making three's or? What exactly do you mean?
Andreas Ryge W
I like how these comments have aged 😂😂😂
Matt Barnes The drifter..... surprisingly well spoken, polite. Great job bro.
"Suprisingly well spoken"?? He has a communications degree from UCLA
Melo Ali right seem like he was always fighting on the court lol
sean don Word!
Jump used to talk about basketball. Now it's just about creating drama...like the rest of the ESPN shows...
re: jealous older players. Iggy is probably talking about guys like Chris Paul. I still remember that killer crossover that Steph gave him years ago. Or the shimmy imitation that CP3 had of Steph from last year's series.
Dean H there’s no basketball going on right now what are they supposed to talk about
So don’t fucking watch it stupid
Nathan tomlinson he’s just stupid
PREACH! Everything about creating drama!
Cause of all the games being played now, right?
Matt Barnes looks like He could be trae young’s dad 😂😅I’m jus sayin
Taylor Real shit who knows it’s possible
Taylor Real keep your stupid trash tv comments to yourself. Jus sayin
trae young himself looks old asf lmao
NathanIVV jus making a funny comment. Go be toxic on worldstar or sumn 😂. God bless u
He is his dad.
To players who resent Curry: Elevate your game.
Exactly!! "you hate em cuz u aint em"....
I don't condone but understand some of the resentment, Nick nailed it. Bigs and non-shooting wings were forced out of the league or nearly forced out because he changed the game so much. The traditional, pludding center and power forward died. Wings needed to be at least 3-nand-D.
To players who resent Curry: JUST GET GOOD
@@masculinitymatters9030 he wasn't wrong, neither ..... Stephen Curry is LARGELY responsible for changing how the NBA game is played. I won't say the Shaw/Dwight-type centers were forced out of the league by Steph cuz (truthfully) there aren't any of those coming through anyway .... but the paint is so much more open for drives to the basket now cuz there are so many more threats to pull up and lace shots from 22-32 feet that they HAVE to be guarded from basically halfcourt inward.
If you hate Stephen Curry? Something’s wrong with you? This guy has a thousand moves. What’s yours?
Have to say, Matt Barnes is Fantastic; he keeps it real, thoughtful, knowledgeable, not afraid to talk about other aspects of the game, usually "left out" and is always, respectful to the other commentators. No nonsense, poised, thoughtful, elegant...refreshing. More Matt Barnes!
ESPN needs to get Matt Barnes under contract !!!!!
Why, so they can work the hell out of him 365 days a year! Now Charles, Kenny and Shaq have the dream analysis job on TNT and it's far better than anything on ESPN that's basketball related and their NINE EMMY'S confirms that!
He smokes to much weed for their liking lol

Hahahaahahhaaha "failed to deter Kobe Bean Bryant as expected"
Kobe video viral. Definitely on his resume
Let’s Go LAkers!! Let’s Go 👏☝️🏆17🔥
Matt Barnes is about that life though lol. He also didn’t fear anyone in the league and wanted the smoke from everyone.
Matt Barnes is by far my fav guest analyst!! he makes very structured comments and how often do you get a guy saying "go ahead finish your point and i'll say mine" instead of those who are cutting other people off
Steph changed NBA with his effectiveness and shooting.
Go on hatin, he just gonna keep on rollin
MJ Is The Goat shut ya clown ass up that’s a shitty ass argument
@@samhrdlicka1132 Steph did change the game, but 0 final mvps is kind of glaring. Look at all the greats that went to finals, they got at least one.
If it werent for KD, Curry would only have 1 fluke ring against injured Cavs. Lol

I actually saw MB walking through the ATL airport and asked him for a quick photo. He was a cool guy. Snapped the pic and told me to have a good day. No attitude. No BS. Just a chill dude taking a moment to appreciate a fan.
Also, @ 4:10, that was a classy move.
That's why Steph's unselfishness is underrated...KD, Klay, Green do what they do because of him sacrificing touches and playing by the system
I wouldn't say that Steph sacrifices touches. By being a distributer, he gets more and better looks at the basket because it forces the defense to pay attention to the other guys as well. That's when Steph hits your with a 40 foot bomb.
Without Steph guys like Klay would have remained merely good role players. Instead a guy like Klay is getting a Max deal
@@zacharywhite211 You have a point. Klay wouldn't say that though. Klay thinks he is just as good as Kawhi.
Nah KD does what he does because... well he’s KD. Steph didn’t make him. Lol. I also don’t see Curry’s unselfishness helping Klay and Green play the D that he refuses or just flat out forgot how to play. If he ever played D at all. Those championships are more of a result of Klays, Green, and Iguodalas shut down defense than Curry shooting 3’s or being unselfish.
Zachary White You’re crazy if you think Klay wouldn’t of excelled in the league. He can shoot is athletic and actually plays D. His shooting helps Curry as much as the other way around.

Spilling all the tea. Huh sis
I'm definitely buying it this weekend
Niko Gambino wtf
@Roguish Miggz ?????
@EL COMEDY BULLY Iggy used Steph to sell his book. Wow, that makes a lot of sense because there were no details when spoke about Steph and his eyes rolled to the right when they asked him about it.
Matt Barnes is actually great at this he a natural well spoken and articulate plus he has the credential as an ex nba player & champion
I used to dislike Matt when he was on the floor, no reason. But I love him so much now on the mic. Punctual, precise and polite. Always great analysis.
Matt Barnes should be a full time commmentator. He doesn't get enough credit. He is better than half the other players and reporters.
Matt Barnes keeping it 💯
5:00
Just a little light skinned boy,
Living in a lonely world.
He took the 3 point shot, from anyyyywhereeeee...
Stephnnn curyyyyyyy just shooting threes so don't stop believing lmao
Nice
Barnes is "aces in my books"- his Vlad interview really clarified any confusion about him as a human being. Cheering for him to succeed ALWAYS!!
Matt Barnes nailed it about Curry, albeit unfortunate. But it's true. "Perfect example of what the NBA thinks to be represented as". His skills are off the charts but it's hard not to ignore how highly the NBA treats him.
I wasn't expecting Matt Barnes to be so well spoken, informed and entertaining. This man needs at least a podcast, ESPN!
Mainly Chris Paul... I Remember The First Year He Got Chosen To Start Over Cp3 In The All Star Game The Hatred For Steph Grew Around The League From That Day On 💯
That guy next to Matt said nothing about anything but still managed to speak
yeah who the fuck is that

Saw Matt Barnes on the thumbnail, automatically click on the video. Love his unbiased opinions!
He was a warrior and hes light skin though, thats kinda bias?
@@Writeous0ne All opinion is bias, but some are less clouded by their own narrow scoped perspective.
Iggy’s book is like the Zapruder film now - it’s an archeological dig - so much dirt.
😂😂😂😂😂
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Lol this sounds like a quote from goatmentator
Matt Barnes is one lucky dude. Finally got a ring before retirement.
barnes is same kind of champ as james jones
That's not luck their best player isn't Wilt Chamberlain who can score 100pts by himself
Rafał at least Matt Barnes played tho...
Matt Barnes is very well spoken and insightful, wish ESPN would use him more than Rose, Perkins, Stephen Jackson...
Stephen Jackson consistently brings the worst, most garbage takes to the table. He's clickbait made flesh.
Perkins is actually good
RicardoAGuitar Jackson just talks smack on ex-Spurs whenever he gets the chance
That's the thing. Steph played the game in his own way, fit for his size, his strengths, his skills. However, most NBA players played the game to "be like Mike".
Kobe wants to be Mike, Lebron wants to be Mike, almost all NBA players wants to be like Mike.
But Steph created his own path, a trailblazer, and managed to changed the game Forever.
Yeah because Mike was actually exciting to watch. It isn't exciting watching someone chuck up 3's all game long. It isn't fun to watch. I can only imagine how much less fun it is to actually play against. These players play to win, but they also wanna have fun doing what they love. Curry takes all the fun out of the game
Dont even compare the eras lol wtf the defence now is dog shit any goat from the past eras would easily avg 50 points a game this era is soft gtfo
@@MeSureBack stupid asf comment
@@MeSureBack idiot hater
That's true. If you saw his strengths and weaknesses chart in college it shows how the game was. But Steph used those "weaknesses" and took over
love the “once tried kobe” every time Matt comes thru
“Chris Paul is aging because he’s a human” Hot take right there
I laughed at that too haha. She does a good job tho
😂😂😂😂
@Michael Lansky Yeah....but sometimes people need to be reminded of the obvious. So many players being "criticized" for being washed up, but no one cares that father time has no love for anyone.

Matt should be on this show permanently! Knows the game in & out, good talker and keeps it 100!
Sign that man up 👍
Matt Barnes so well spoken 💕 so impressed With his career after hoops
One of the realest takes on steph curry ever!
ATL 1 lmao a dude in a yt comment section gonna go against the opinion of an ex nba champion
This cast is really great and talk very accurate and factually about their topics. Regarding players that don’t like steph. It’s similar to Jeremy Lins story. You’re considered an outsider in the game where many players come from an impoverished background. Many superstars are not like that and therefore will try to spread hate onto you. It’s terrible because it’s the thing they are actually supposedly fighting for in our society today.
atleast theres a lot of people love steph...idc what other Gonna say but steph is my favorite...love love love
Matt Barnes is severely underrated as an analyst. Good dude and a great player. 👍🏾
There will always be haters when you're seen as perfect and a threat
It’s also the legacy narrative, the one that’s pushed by the NBA itself.
The 2016 finals is remembered for Kyrie hitting a 3 *with over a minute left* in game7. But, the story has *Never* has the story been pushed as: “Steph missed 2, wide open, potentially game winning shots when his team really needed him, and couldn’t carry his 73 win team the previous closeout games”
That biased narrative, pushed by the NBA and its broadcasting partners, is what gets to other players who are treated differently. Shouldn’t those finals be remembered as a Steph choke job?
It’s the exact same reason Pippen wanted out of Chicago after the ‘91 championship. He was undoubtedly the 2nd best player on the court during their entire run. So, now the NBA and it’s media arm could stop solely blaming him for MJ choking the year before against Detroit, and he could finally move away from the media circus in Chicago.
@@cjwrench07 what?
Matt Barnes to me is a breath of fresh air. He is a calm cool and collected commentator and not mad in his feelings like SAS, Kellerman, Paul Peirce lmao.
Matt Barnes needs his own show, probably coupled with Perkins and a moderator. His perspective is so clean and clear and smooth. The man needs his own show.
Louie Tzepher staks
You lost me at Perkins
@@nick_fuqua My comment was made nearly a year ago, when Perk first started and he was keeping it real. Now i would have to say, i agree with you, Perk has transformed into a blabber mouth, Lebron groupie and just down right annoying.
Me: *reads title*
Also Me: "Who didnt know this?"
The hate come from how he changed the playstyle of the whole league
Made it more softer and predictable.
@@jayphilly1703 3>2
Jay Philly
First of all the refs did that. They call tiny touches and send people to the lines. That’s how it got so soft. They call anything now. And when they know they’re wrong they refuse to reverse the call
ok
But kids who aren’t exactly athletic are striving to be like steph. Believe it or not, he inspires the kids who aren’t athletic or aggressive.
@@jayphilly1703 Lebron made it soft
@@jayphilly1703 It so predictable that the league cant stop steph from shooting HAHA
He moved on from making headlines for tripping over Gloria. I'm really glad to see Matt Barnes is in a better headspace.
Daddy... Derek over here at the house.... With mama....
Iggy is absolutely right. I can name one player for sure, who has lost many sleepless nights in trying to figure out ways to beat and compete against Steph and the warriors. Steph is this person's #1 nemesis and his absurdity of trying to beat Steph is greater than that of Mike D'Anton's. Steph has changed the point guard's position and NBA League for the good.
You're talking about CP3 aren't you? hahahah
Westbrook
Carolyn Moore People saying CP3 but LeBron is the pretty obv choice here 😂
Steph is one of Shaq's favorite players though, look at his Instagram from the past years up to now
Luedizer Universal yeah Shaq hasn’t been shy about his love for Steph lol
Shaq really respects great players who have smaller size or height.. Look what shaq has said of Iverson..
Matt Barnes and Jalen Rose need their own show on ESPN - Do you agree?

@@RKO859 With Bares not Jacoby you moron
Matt Barnes needs his own show and or he needs to be on the court interviewing athletes for a major network. He's so genuine and talented!
ESPN pls give Barnes a permanent job and get rid of Hollins and the other nba commentators
Been saying for years.... If he was from the backwoods of Virginia, from poverty, had dark skin and tattoos he'd be universally considered one of the best to ever do it.... But because he comes from NBA money... Grew up around the league... People think he didn't earn it.. like guys from the hood have to. Just how it is.... I've been watching since 1990....hes easily one of the 10 best players since then... If not top 5.
That’s really stupid because here’s the list of NBA players who are sons of NBA players:
Kobe Bryant
Klay Thompson
Justice Winslow
Al Horford
Devin Booker
Jae Crowder
Wesley Matthews
Andrew Wiggins
Larry Nance Jr
Darius Garland
Gary Trent Jr
Glen Rice jr
Tim Hardaway Jr
Jaren Jackson Jr
Jerian Grant (dad AND uncle played in NBA)
Jerami Grant (dad AND uncle in NBA)
Garret Temple
Bol Bol
Domantis Sabonis
Jalen Brunson
Ed Davis
Nic Claxton
And this list goes on and on
And soon Lebron James’s son will be in the NBA, then Shaq’s son, then D Wade’s son (not the one who turned into a chick)
@@youtubecommenter37 yeah and none of them outside the top 2 on your list have done anything to earn worldwide praise . Klay still gets seen as a role player....Kobe still didn't get the respect he deserved until after he died. Of course everyone knows Steph is good....some don't see greatness and I believe that his upbringing has something to do with it. Theres still lots of people who think Russ is better than Steph....makes me laugh.
@@nickryan491 you didn't prove your case and neither did Barnes. You can't just throw stuff out there and leave people speculating.

Great interview. These two guys presented themselves and their fellow players well. Nicely done.
without steph, lebron would be the unanimous goat with 7 rings
Nah he lost that his first 2 trips to the championship game and lost!! 6-0 would still be better than 7-3 my guy!!
How can you hate on Steph because of his greatness. Thats just jelousy man...cmon stop it already.

who?
He got that "soft light skinned game". I remember kobe saying something to that affect when Jordan Clarkson tried to do a layup instead of dunking it one game.
@@MariE-bz2eq Jordan who, lol
Yes the game has changed calm me and old head or whatever but basketball when I was growing up was big men down low, post play etc.. but you can’t hate or resent steph for any reason the man is great at what he does.
Everyone has an opinion but if he is playing better than you you just got to play that much better than your opponent. 20 years from now there will be another player who is just that damn good. Let’s enjoy the sport and get away from the drama.
Barnes, Kenyon martin, and Stephen Jackson need a show together now. My three favorite ex-players
For real
THEY THE TRUTH
Truth and Barnes always keep it real. I cannot stand warriors not because of their wins but their growing arrogance and thug draymond but one person I and many LA fans respect is Curry, he’s changed the nba landscape and remains humble and hard working. He’s a 🐐 regardless of his skin color. Glad Matt had the guts to bring out the issue of light and dark skins prejudice existing in the African Americans society.
